What I do in this situation is: 1) enter open firmware (reboot holding Command-Option-O-F) 2) at prompt enter: boot hd: X, yaboot where 'X' is your yaboot partition (in my case is '2'). 3) Now yaboot must appear 'normally', I select boot linux. 4) When linux givs me the promtp I then execute: ybin -v this reinstalls the boot partition in OF. I've repeated this process whenever I had to reinstall OS-X. A. Corbi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
